Dear GSL group,

Thank you very much for your work on GSL. I use it much in Octave.

I think it would be great if you could improve the GSL routines
for computations of exponential integrals so that they can accept complex arguments too. A good algorithm for this was published in

ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software
Donald E. Amos, Computation of Exponential Integrals of a Complex Argument, vol.16, no. 2, p.169--177, 1990,

p.178--182, 1990,
